Cameras and Alarms Depend on Power and Internet
A camera system and an alarm both rely on two things most people never think about: electricity and an internet connection. When either drops, recording can stop, remote viewing goes dark, and an alarm may be unable to reach the monitoring center. Backup power and backup internet close that gap.
Backup Power (UPS)
A UPS battery keeps your NVR, PoE switch, router, and alarm equipment running through power cuts and brief voltage dips, and shuts equipment down safely if the outage runs long. We size it to the load and the runtime you want.
Backup Internet (4G/5G)
A 4G/5G backup router takes over automatically when your main internet line drops, so remote viewing and your alarm's connection to the monitoring center stay online, then switches back by itself when the line returns.
What We Keep Running
Cameras and NVR
Recording continues through a power cut, and remote viewing continues through an internet outage.
Alarm and Monitoring
Your alarm stays powered and keeps its connection to the monitoring center, so a cut line does not leave you unprotected.
Router and Network
The router, switches, and Wi-Fi stay up, so everything on the network keeps working.
Business Essentials
Where needed, payment terminals, POS systems, and office phones can run on the same backup.
How It Works
Survey
We check what needs to stay on, for how long, and what your internet setup looks like.
Sizing
We choose a UPS and a 4G/5G router that fit your equipment and the runtime you need.
Install and Test
We install everything and test the failover before we leave.
Handover
You get a short walkthrough, so you know what happens during an outage.
Who It Is For
Shops, pharmacies, and offices that cannot afford to lose recording or their alarm connection, homes with cameras and an alarm, and building committees with elevator and shared-area cameras. If your insurer's security specification asks for backup power or a backup communication line, this is how it gets covered.
Learn about commercial securityWhat to Expect
Runtime depends on the battery size and what is connected, and 4G/5G speed depends on mobile coverage at your site. We tell you what to expect before you decide.
Pricing depends on the equipment you need to keep running and the runtime you want, so we quote after a short survey.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long will a UPS keep my cameras running? +
It depends on the battery size and what is connected, from tens of minutes to several hours. We size the UPS to the runtime you ask for.
Will my cameras keep recording during an internet outage? +
Yes. Recording happens on the NVR at your site, so it does not need the internet. The internet is only needed for remote viewing and alerts, which is what the 4G/5G backup keeps alive.
Do I need a SIM card and data plan for the 4G/5G backup? +
Yes, the backup router uses a data SIM. A plan sized for backup use is usually enough, and we can advise on what suits your setup.
Will the backup internet be as fast as my main line? +
Not necessarily. Speed depends on mobile coverage at your location. It is meant to keep cameras, alarms, and essential systems online, not to replace your main connection for everything.
